00:03:24.000Pepper spray, tear gas, all that stuff being deployed.
00:03:27.000And then we've got Steven Colbert's response to Jimmy Kimmel being taken off the air, and surprise, surprise, he's doubling down, saying Jimmy Kimmel didn't say anything wrong, showing the clip, and basically without overtly saying it, implying that the assassin of Charlie Kirk was MAGA.

00:05:52.000Trump seeks 100,000 visa fee for temporary skilled workers.
00:05:58.000Trump announced that highly skilled workers hoping to work in America will now have to pay a 100,000 dollar fee to receive an H1B visa multiple outlets reported.
00:06:06.000H1B visas divided Trump's mega coalition with some arguing foreign employees displace American workers while business leaders like Elon Musk view them as vital to America's tech dominance.
00:06:16.000Trump also signed an order to create a gold card to sell U.S. residency for one million dollars.
00:06:21.000This as far as anyone's concerned this ends H1B.
00:06:26.000When they say high skilled workers that's not H1B.
00:06:29.000People have been posting job offers from they found from like various recruiters where they're looking for like low level managers for $35,000 a year and you don't need to recruit from India or any other foreign country for that.
00:06:42.000What they're really doing is trying to get cheap labor from foreign countries that will take a job in America but will work for less displacing American workers.
00:06:51.000So Trump, he just split the baby right the big tech people said no we need H1B and they were saying American workers are lazy.
00:06:58.000And then you get the working class MAGA people who are like no way dude these were why are we competing with these people from foreign lands so Trump says okay if you really want to hire somebody because you can't find anybody else you got to pay a hundred thousand dollars.
00:07:12.000Now guess what if a company really genuinely needs an engineer from a foreign country and they can't find anybody here in the United States, they might pay the 100 thousand dollars why because this person's gonna get paid 400 grand as it is they might say okay fine we'll pay we'll pay that fee because we need the employee low skill labor being imported to displace American workers ain't nobody spending a hundred thousand dollars to hire a guy for 35k.
00:07:36.000So this is effectively ending the H1B visa program as far as anyone's concerned.
00:07:41.000Yeah I mean they had system or software engineer listings for like 60 grand in San Jose.
00:07:47.000And it was absolutely ridiculous like they're making it abundantly clear that they were undercutting American wages and then yeah you had like yoga instructors listed for H1B.
00:07:56.000Yeah yeah and it was a major company and they had yoga instructor listed on it be fair you you probably should get someone from India for that.
00:08:01.000Otherwise it's cultural appropriation.
00:08:04.000You don't want to be racist cultural cultural appropriation is good though.
00:08:08.000Yeah yeah it was just madness so yeah like proponents of the H1B program make this really bad argument that it's it's totally dishonest that it's about scooping up the best talent from around the world and bringing people in we have other visas that do that for like you know the brilliant uh mathematician and and whatever else the H1B program is a program almost explicitly designed to undercut American wages and particularly in the tech role but as we've seen with some of these job postings yeah it's all across the board.
00:08:35.000Tim and actually done some digging the other day and it's not just the H1B visas there are multiple visas that are basically the Oseless well the O1 is a good one.
00:08:46.000But that are that are basically useless basically just you know some excuse to bring in a worker that you know to give them a job that could be filled by an American so I think that the H1 getting rid of the or making the H1B financially unrewarding for people is a good start but I think that's just it it's just a start.
00:09:06.000Like sure there's no reason to import workers to do jobs that Americans can do.
00:09:12.000Yeah and there's also like what an 85000 job cap supposedly on it.
00:09:16.000So it's like if the argument is we're bringing in high skilled applicants and then they use a lottery system to decide who's actually getting these visas then it totally kills the point of if it was high school in the first place.
00:09:26.000And then yeah once you dig a little bit you realize this is even high school this is just a jobs program or if you if you get really good at yoga do you learn how to breathe fire?
00:09:34.000I only my only exposure to yoga is passively watching rom coms and Street Fighter 2.
00:09:40.000My my girlfriend does like pregnant yoga.
00:09:43.000Oh so that's no fire breathing no fire sounds dangerous for a pregnant woman.
00:09:47.000She's not I don't I don't think so I think it's I think it's safe.
00:09:50.000So but okay good but I mean the another thing about the H1B visas when someone gets an H1B visa a lot of times their residency is connected to having a job.
00:10:01.000So it turns them into basically an indentured slave.
00:10:04.000Right or indentured slave so the company can do things like oh you have to work this weekend and then if if they're like no I don't want to it's like well maybe you do want to because you want to stay here.
00:10:14.000You know and and it really it becomes a tool of coercion by a company to you know tell a worker or two American workers you know they're so entitled they want these things called raises and you know maybe they want to take dri you know breaks and vacations and things like that but you can pluck a guy out of uh some war torn you know third world village and he's not gonna ask for any of that.
00:10:34.000I actually I actually figured it out here at Timcast we we don't give raises we you get a you get an annual pay decrease and if you're really good we'll keep your salary at the same level so everyone's really fighting real hard well yeah yeah you can't even get a smoke break anymore because of these H1Bs you know it's a Zen break what's going on and you can the Zen you have to do while you're here.
00:11:31.000He likes sticks them in his mouth oh yeah it doesn't like make your gums rot and your teeth fall out no no well actually not according to RFK.
00:11:38.000So I've done a little actually reading on it and as far as I know the nicotine pouches and stuff like that they're not they're they're not a carcinogen.
00:11:47.000They don't rot your gums they don't you know because nicotine itself isn't a carcinogen it's all the other stuff that usually comes along I'm a heavy Zen user though and I did feel like the wall of my gum getting thinner and thinner.
00:11:59.000Are you sure about that or are you just like neuron you stop doing it it restricts your it's a vasoconstrictor nicotine so it might it might be restricting but you're right that it's not it's not like it's definitely cancerous the healthiest way to use nicotine which in and of itself is harmless.
00:12:12.000It's not the most awesome I tell you what I miss Marlboro's like a madman.
00:12:15.000Yeah it doesn't have the same like gravitas smoking better than vaping though it's better than way more than on robot D. Yeah you're supposed to jog while you Zen and then what happens is your body starts conflating the Zen nicotine with jogging and you'll be like I gotta go for a run man and you'll get really you'll get like super fit.
00:12:34.000Well you can use Zen um if you're like if you're really trying to get into a habit you can use it as like a reward so then you're addicted to the habit because you know you're gonna get Zen dude it's genius.
00:12:42.000Well like it's just addicted to Zen button you trick your body by do engaging in that routine behavior and that have love.
00:12:49.000Yeah just talking about this I can't wait to get home I want to smoke a cigar well that's what they're saying it's like some dating advice is I don't know if this is legal but you can like put a nicotine pouch on the person that you want to date you know I'm just saying probably not legal but they're not legal this is not advice hey that'll break the restraining order broke been doing this H1Bs are doing this apparently the camera butt go out.
00:13:11.000Uh maybe saw on that's what I thought it was.
00:13:16.000But um anyway we're talking about not letting people into the country yeah well yeah that's the thing is like it does fill the H1Bs because the green card process takes so long that yeah they just become like total indentured servants.
00:13:27.000And that's the pitch people are making most often but I'm also like Yeah, but this just harms Americans.
00:13:31.000Like it sucks for them, but it's probably better than being in India.
00:13:34.000But people don't realize that a lot of these like when you go to like a Chinese nail salon and stuff like that, when you go to places where it's very clearly all immigrant workers and it's a trend, these people are all slaves.
00:13:45.000I I don't draw a distinction between indentured servant and slave.
00:13:48.000I'm I mean, maybe I'm being a little hyperbolic, but you'll go to like a Chinese food restaurant, everybody working there is Asian.
00:13:54.000What they do is the company will sponsor somebody or someone will sponsor somebody and they'll say, We'll bring you over here, it's gonna cost 20 grand and you're gonna work until you pay it off.
00:14:03.000But it's ridiculously difficult to pay off when they're paying you three bucks an hour or whatever, and then you're getting you're getting paid properly, but you have no control of the money because your contract deal is in a different country.
00:14:15.000This is kind of like when we saw the Chinese police stations in North America.
00:14:21.000We can say you can't do that here, but they can hold contracts on other countries while they're here.
00:14:28.000Yeah, and they're a good, a good it's it's a good argument against mass immigration because it shows when you have like the mass transfer of people from one country to ours, that like there's still that connection back to their country, and in a lot of ways, you know, it could be secret, you know, CCP police, it could be weird labor stuff going on.
00:14:47.000It builds a connection that you might not want to have, and I would say we shouldn't have.
00:14:50.000Someone just uh super chat or chatted checked the H1B Reddit, so I did.
00:15:14.000In 2025, the total number of H1Bs is roughly 730,000, which is less than point five of the total US workforce of over 170 million rest in peace.
00:15:24.000I'm telling you, people were saying, like I said, the title of the video is Trump just ended the H1B H1B program because it is an effective termination.
00:15:33.000And there are people being like, No, we did it still there.
00:15:35.000Bro, I'm telling you, this the it is cooked, right?
00:15:38.000Ain't nobody's gonna bring on some $30,000 a year ice cream store manager now when they gotta pay $130,000 for it.
00:15:45.000It also raised the the wage floor for the H1Bs from like 60k to 150K.
00:15:52.000So you have to pay these people way more, which obviously, you know, if these are the best and brightest from around the world, then there shouldn't be a problem there.
00:15:58.000But obviously, that's not what the program is.
00:16:00.000It reincentivizes American, exactly and it replaced the the lottery dynamic of the H1B with kind of a highest bidder thing.
00:16:07.000So it's a it's a great policy, and I just want to point out that there have been people claiming for like a year now that Donald Trump was gonna like massively expand the H1B program.
00:16:15.000There's some viral posts like a few days ago, and all of these people are just totally wrong.
00:16:19.000These people that just lie about Trump all the time.
00:16:38.000Not worth it even for those who make two hundred thousand.
00:16:41.000Why is there an H1B V for a Reddit page?
00:16:44.000What the crazy it's people from around the world trying to get into our country using this this program, and they're talking about how maybe not gaming the system, probably a bit of that, but how how you can make sure your application gets approved.
00:16:56.000I guess the follow-up question to that is does ICE know that the H1B is free game?
00:17:08.000Now for the rest of us Americans, but wait, there's more from NBC News, tear gas used on protesters at Chicago area ice site as immigration crackdown escalates.
00:17:19.000Federal officers and camouflage and riot gear clashed as demonstrators blocked vehicles in protest of Trump's expanding enforcement suite.
00:18:13.000And the the the idea there would be these people would be outside of the facility holding signs, chanting, not confronting and fighting with cops to the where the cops need to be armed.
00:18:24.000The moment they step up and start physically obstructing, it's a riot, arrest them.
00:19:12.000They think that this is what their base wants.
00:19:13.000And if you're running for Congress in what is it, Illinois, uh, yeah, then that probably is is what the Democrats want there.
00:19:20.000I mean, the this kind of behavior does get clicks and it gets pe young people on Instagram excited and it gets young people to possibly even donate, but it doesn't get young people to the polls.
00:19:37.000And I I mean, personally, I think that I I don't want to say that I wish that it weren't true, but I think that it's a reality that people should acknowledge.
00:19:46.000Like, no matter how many people are on your Instagram live, no matter how many people are watching your reels, no matter how many people click on your your you know video of you getting manhandled by the police and tell you you're the best and how brave you are and give you all kinds of affirmations that doesn't translate into getting kids to the polls.
00:20:06.000I have a I have a I have a question for where this all goes with this cat and U Gazela.
00:20:11.000Um, if you go online and start espousing political beliefs that are that are favorable to a foreign nation, like let's say you make a channel that's just all about Japanese politics, and you're sitting there and you're screaming and you're yelling and you know, Konichiwa or whatever, and Japanese people are watching your show and you're making millions of dollars.
00:20:32.000Then in America, with the millions of dollars you make, you announce you're running for Congress, and you use all that money to win your congressional race and then start basically lobbying on behalf of Japan.
00:20:43.000And do we have an answer for when this happens?
00:20:46.000Because I feel like this is what we're seeing right now, actually.
00:20:48.000There are people who go on social media, they build a big following, but the following is going to be a lot of foreign individuals who have interests in the certain ideas they may be pushing.
00:20:59.000Then they're going to start running for office and they're going to have a monetary base, not when they're running for office, because at that point you cut it off.
00:21:06.000But you know, I think the story was that what Hillary Clinton gave us before she announced she was running for office, she gave a speech to Goldman Sachs for like $250,000, and everyone's like, we get it.
00:21:20.000Nobody like you can't legally do anything about it.
00:21:22.000What are we going to do when people build big followings of foreign, you know, uh individuals?
00:21:26.000I'm not saying I'm not saying it's illicit.
00:21:28.000I'm saying somebody literally is like, I'm very much interested interested in the politics of the Middle East.
00:21:32.000They build up a big following of Middle Eastern individuals.
00:21:35.000They've they have a million, two million followers, they start posting sponsorships and ads, they start making money off that, they make themselves millionaires, and then they say, I'm gonna finance my own campaign with my money and win, but their interest is lobbying for a foreign country.
00:21:50.000Yeah, it's a problem because I think most people would agree that that's like definitely an eth ethically questionable at the very least.
00:21:56.000But you're right that if done in that way in that order, it wouldn't necessarily violate any you know campaign finance laws.
00:22:03.000Yeah, and the the internet grows more third world uh every day.
00:22:07.000And you know, we're seeing this play out with a lot of different narratives and you know, sort of movements and um and you're right.
00:22:13.000I hadn't actually considered that angle, but yeah, I would imagine we're gonna feel the political direct political ramifications of that more and more in the coming decades.
00:22:20.000I I bring this up because Kat Abu Ghazala, I believe she is Palestinian.
00:22:34.000There are people who have duels, citizenships, or other loyalties, and they will build up a base from people in foreign countries that will finance or fund them.
00:22:44.000Then later on when they run for office.
00:22:46.000And I and to be fair, we can even exclude the run for office part.
00:22:50.000Um we are going to have prominent individuals lobbying on behalf of foreign countries in this country because their audience is gonna be composed of people from foreign countries.
00:23:02.000And and the H1B thing, I think, especially.
00:23:05.000And that's why many of us have been saying, you know, Elon needs to create a way to region lock so that we do not see views, comments, retweets or posts from countries we don't want to.
00:23:16.000So like let's see someone, let's say someone posts a tweet where they're like, you know, uh, what's a you know, uh, what's a good country that's obscure and no one cares about?
00:23:41.000And they don't realize it's a bunch of like Eritreans cheering, woo.
00:23:44.000Yeah, and so they start replicating that content to pander to a foreign country in the United States.
00:23:50.000Yeah, I mean, well, you're seeing like yeah, the very small scale version, like with Elon Omar, where she basically has like an ethnic enclave behind her, ensuring election after election.
00:23:59.000Um and you see the way she's behaved just with that.
00:24:02.000I mean, she's still accountable to a large degree to the rest of the country.
00:24:04.000She is in the House of Representatives, but ultimately she's accountable to her district and she rewards them.
00:24:09.000She advocates and lobbies for Somali interests and in Congress.
00:24:12.000And so she's like literally will say it in Somali, and you're sitting here like something's not adding up here.
00:24:20.000Yeah, she's basically a representative from Somalia for the United States.
00:24:25.000I I don't know what the solution is, how to prevent that, but that's something that should not happen.
00:24:32.000Like we should not have a person in Congress that's essentially repos representing another country, whether it doesn't matter if it's Somalia or any other country, like they should not be representing a foreign nation.
00:24:43.000Well, and it's like the thing with Elon, it's like, okay, there's this this push now to get her denaturalized and deported, etc.
00:24:51.000But the problem is you're gonna have more and more people like her who actually are like we're born here and everything passes everything, you know, everything's above the board.
00:24:58.000She wasn't, but I'm saying is like, okay, you get her out, you're gonna have the same problem because they're just gonna elect another Somali.
00:25:03.000And this guy might have been born there.
00:26:09.000So well, we brought in, you know, many millions of people from all around the world that uh believe it or not, don't buy into kind of Anglo-liberal individualism, and uh it's just an incredibly you know, tribalism is the norm outside of outside of the West, and you know, even just more specifically the Anglosphere.
00:26:27.000So uh you when you bring people over in small amounts, they generally will assimilate.
00:26:31.000When you bring people over in large amounts, they're less likely to assimilate.
00:26:35.000And when you consider what immigrants are assimilating to now, it could be you know black lives matter and uh liberalism just generally.
00:26:41.000I'm getting uh one second, I have a correction.
00:27:10.000Even on tweets that have nothing to do with Israel.
00:27:12.000I'm just like, I want less immigration and someone's like Jew, and I look at their I look at their like location like Bangladesh or something, and it's like, really?
00:28:17.000Um, but like it does actually add to his his credit, like gives him a little a modicum of credibility because you're like, all right, well, uh he then this makes me believe that even if I disagree with him about his his takes about Israel, he's honest about them.
00:28:31.000He really does believe these things because he's saying this particular case I don't think is Israel.
00:28:36.000So like if you if he were just a a grifter that was grifting off of of anti-Israel sentiment, because there's a lot of people globally that are really anti-Israel, and you can make a lot of money and get a lot of followers by being anti-Israel.
00:28:48.000And if he was actually just a grifter and didn't actually at least believe the things that he said, why wouldn't he say, well, of course Israel was going after Charlie Kirk.
00:28:58.000Well, of course, you know, it it would probably satisfy a large portion of his less attached to reality followers, you know.
00:29:07.000So you guys know how I met with uh Netanyahu earlier this year, a few months ago.
00:29:23.000You know, unfortunately now there's gonna be a bunch of people that are gonna be like, that proves it, and they're gonna start tweeting at him, and they're gonna say he got the call, and Tim Pool claimed he was there.
00:29:30.000And I'm like, I'm literally joking, Nick was not there.
00:29:45.000There there are there are real people that live in other countries that watch content.
00:29:49.000Uh there's like uh I I I watch content from a bunch of foreign people, they skateboard.
00:29:54.000You know, there's a lot of Japanese content and skateboarding.
00:29:57.000So I'm watching a bunch of stuff on Instagram from Japanese people about Japan, and I'm like, look at that, you know, whatever.
00:30:02.000And people in Japan have interest in the things we do here.
00:30:06.000So for politics, especially considering the United States is basically the top of the mountain, they're going to be watching all this political commentary.
00:30:13.000And English is the business language of the world.
00:30:15.000So a lot of these people speak to a certain degree English, or will use translators, and now with like X is auto-translating.
00:30:22.000So you're going to get people from all over the world commenting, doing we gotta we gotta we gotta we gotta be able to block that.
00:30:28.000I I I want to be able to go on X and be like, I only want to see America.
00:30:32.000You know, to be typically honest, I'd say Canada, the US, Mexico, and maybe uh Europe.
00:30:38.000I mean honestly, what it not that I know anything about the back end at at X, but I mean it seems like it wouldn't be particularly difficult to just say these are the you know, select the country.
00:30:48.000Here's a list of countries that I care about.
00:30:50.000I want to see tweets from this these regions.
00:30:52.000Because there's never been like a I'm seeing like a really intellectual discourse going on.
00:31:48.000No one's gotta be more crushed than him that the America Party thing's not happening.
00:31:52.000I was gonna say, yeah, you uh yeah, you know, Miles Strong is like generally on the right, but yeah, he sided with Elon's crash out that Elon himself has like walked back distance himself from to his credit.
00:32:29.000Bro, if you had a if you had a hundred thousand dollars per year and you're living in Malaysia, you're ten times you've got a compound, you've got a driver, you've got the man.
00:33:02.000I always thought that like if Elon really wanted to, he could return to South Africa and just spend like a quarter of his net worth and just rule the country for like in perpetuity.
00:33:09.000Just saying, I like having him here to fight for us, but like he could do that whenever he wants.
00:33:13.000The problem is it's too far away from the equator for launching into space.
00:34:05.000I I I gotta I gotta be completely honest.
00:34:08.000If you are like a college age dude, you're Gen Z, and you finally reach that point where your podcast every day you're doing an hour long podcast, you're cracking 129,000, you're going like this is amazing.
00:34:23.000Because if you're getting 129K on a podcast in the key demo, you are making money on that podcast.
00:34:29.000Let me let me I mean, you you're probably making like half a million a year with proper sponsorships and all that stuff.
00:34:34.000You don't always sell, sometimes you do.
00:34:36.000So you're you're you're Gen Z, you're like, this is fantastic.
00:34:38.000But when you're someone like Jimmy Kimmel and you're worth tens of millions, and you're watching your ratings just plummet, I'm sure he's gotta be having an existential crisis.
00:34:50.000Cole Bear, I I should say more more to this to this point.
00:34:53.000Cole Bear used to get millions, and now the ratings are just in the gutter.
00:34:58.000And while he's still getting like a million half to two million in in the retiree demographic, I'm not trying to disrespect retirees, key demo is gone.
00:35:06.000At a certain point, don't you just take a look at the numbers and go, well, it was good while it lasted.
00:35:13.000You know, there there were bands that put out two albums and they're on the top, and then you never hear from them again.
00:35:27.000He can't violate the morality clause in his contract overtly, because then they'll just come after him for money.
00:35:34.000But if he pokes a bear quite a bit, then they might just be like, all right, Colbert, you're you're off the air, and he'd go, Oh, thank God.
00:35:42.000Yeah, I mean, look, the whole, you know, I'm gonna double down, and I've got, you know, he had the story that he's got a had a more inflammatory monologue to give the second day that the after he initially kind of you know offended people, um That kind of makes me think that you might have a point.
00:36:02.000Um, because look, it was clear that like the first things that he said, while they were distasteful, they weren't they weren't really like going after either the voters or or gym or uh Charlie Kirk himself.
00:36:19.000It was it was definitely poking at Trump, which is you know standard fair for Jimmy Kimmel.
00:36:23.000Um but if he was going to do a monologue going after you know the MAGA voters, you know, the essentially which is basically most of the Republicans nowadays, you know, the vast majority at least, that I mean I'd underst I understand why they would be like, yo, we we don't want this, you know.
00:36:41.000So maybe maybe he did have a I think Colbert is gonna say it and if it if I if it ends up killing, you know, killing my my employment here, that's fine.
00:36:48.000Colbert's legacy right now is he fizzled out and fell apart.
00:36:53.000If he gets fired overtly and his show is taken off the air abruptly, then he's gonna start doing the rounds and you know, go to liberal circuit and be like, look at Trump, he's a fascist.
00:38:04.000His is it's like his ratings are so down in the gutter.
00:38:11.000He's gotta just be like, well, you know, been there, done that, won his Emmys, had a massive show to the millions, and now he's fizzling out.
00:38:20.000Audience dwindling, he's worth an estimated 75 million.
00:38:24.000He can just uh right off into the sunset, you know, enjoy life.
00:38:28.000Does he have big uh you know big notes on his house?
00:38:36.000It says that his salary in for the co for the late show with Colbert in 2015 was six million dollars.
00:38:42.000And then in 2019, they signed a deal that raised his pay to 15 million, extended to May 2026.
00:38:48.000Yeah, I mean, look, if you want to live like a normal person, if you have 10 million dollars in the bank, that's plenty of money to live completely normal if you you know if you're not living above your means, if you want to just like live like a normal person.
00:38:59.000That's enough to live in like your life.
00:40:31.000One thirteenth of my monthly monthly salary.
00:40:34.000And again, again, like when you have that kind of money, you're it you've got millions invested, and the money itself that you've invested grows likely faster than you can spend it unless you're you know, unless you're going in and doing like high stakes games in Vegas.
00:40:52.000So I don't have a lot invested in the stock market.
00:40:55.000Like I don't I don't I I actually don't have even like a standard retirement account, but I have stocks and the dividends that many of these some of these stocks pay, you just keep buying more.
00:41:06.000Like they they buy themselves, it's crazy.
00:41:09.000I can't imagine somebody who's making 1.3 million, 15 million dollars a year.
00:41:13.000I mean, he's he's he he they say his net worth is 75 million.
00:41:16.000If that's properly invested in the market, it's infinite money.
00:41:21.000I think I think based uh so uh John McCain famously said in the 2008 cycle when he was asked how much money do you need to do you need to be wealthy, hit seven million dollars, and then people got all shocked and offended because they're like, Are you kidding?
00:41:33.000If I had a million bucks, and what he was saying was if you have seven million dollars in 2008 and you put that into proper wealth management, you are getting paid uh uh your annual uh your annual return minus inflation will cover your standard middle class cost of living.
00:41:52.000You are truly wealthy, you don't have to work anymore.
00:41:55.000Today, based on the market expansion, you probably need something like well, to be fair, no, I mean, even with cost of living going up, you could still feasibly at 10 million never have to work again and be rich.
00:42:06.000And I'm not talking about middle class, I'm saying rich.
00:42:10.000You're again, you're not gonna be flying a you know, flying private jets all the time, you know, if you if you don't want to work, but at 10 million dollars in the bank, you don't have to worry about anything.
00:42:22.000So regardless, Colbert at this point is looking for a legacy, not a paycheck.
00:42:26.000Yeah, I think Colbert probably cares more about status, attention, fame.
00:42:29.000You know, he's obviously as you've established not uh wanting for money, but I I think a lot of liberals are very I mean, conservatives are to some extent, but liberals are very driven by virtue signaling, by status, and yeah, I mean, these are these are not religious people.
00:42:44.000They get they get that kind of feeling by doing other things.
00:42:48.000But I do I do like your theory that he's he just kind of maybe wants the show to be over because it's not doing well, and if it was canceled, he could be like they canceled my super popular show, and you know, I'm I'm kind of my own sort of martyr for for my beliefs, and just like not go back to doing a show because no one's gonna watch it.
00:43:04.000Yeah, because to be fair, I just looked up in July, he got three million uh not it's not key demo, key demo.
00:43:11.000I think he's getting two hundred and something thousand, but uh three million that's a lot of you know, older folks.
00:43:18.000But once the boomers die off, there's not gonna be an audience for the like general procession is generational procession is gonna get rid of some of these like forms, the whole like a late night top the done.
00:43:29.000The apocalypse that is coming for us because the boomers have just reached what's called the mortality shelf.
00:43:48.000So what happens now is we are gonna start seeing an exponential cult death rate.
00:43:53.000Like the death rate for boomers is is skyrocketing now because they are getting close to that age.
00:43:57.000Now I know people are living longer these days, but with the current way things are going politically, we the expectation is that the mortality shelf should be the same for boomers as it has been for every generation.
00:44:07.000So right now there's about 60 million boomers, I think, and within the next 10 years it'll drop down to 20 million.
00:44:12.000So that means all of these institutions will cease to exist in the next 10 years.
00:44:20.000There's a lot of variables in politics and economics, but the one thing we can talk about is the housing market, which is predominantly controlled by the boomers.
00:44:28.000They own, I think, something like 60, 70% of of real estate.
00:44:33.000They own something like 40% of corporate equities.
00:44:36.000Gen, uh uh, Gen X has like 20% millennials have like five and Gen Z has zero.
00:44:41.000So when boomers die, what happens to all that property?
00:44:45.000Yeah, I mean, well, you get Trump and then you know, hypothetically Vance for eight years.
00:44:48.000That's effectively no immigration for 12 years straight and then compounded with the entire boomer housing market being freed up.
00:44:56.000I mean, it could get pretty like maybe Zoomers could own a house at the end of the day.
00:45:00.000I mean, with what those two factors that seems to suggest they're the marketing.
00:45:04.000I think the housing market's going to collapse massively unless the government steps in with BlackRock and the Federal Reserve and props up the property value, which is what they might try and do, which will cause international problems because foreign countries are going to be like, this is fake.
00:45:22.000So basically the idea is boomers have multiple homes.
00:45:42.000So a millennial who who moved from St. Louis to New York to go to the big city, inherits a house in St. Louis and says, I don't want to live in St. Louis.
00:45:50.000They go to they inherit the home and you know their parents die, and it's very sad, and they go to their lawyer and say, I just want to find someone to sell it.
00:45:55.000They get an agent, the agent lists the house.
00:46:16.000So prop the housing market just collapses by some massive number overnight, and that's gonna cause a shock wave around the world because of what that's gonna affect.
00:46:26.000Fearing an economic crisis because of the collapse of of prices of housing prices, the government says, let's have those homes be bought up, excuse me, by BlackRock or other uh companies that are funded by the Federal that they basically get free money from the Federal Reserve.
00:46:41.000So the millennial inherits the house and says it's a $500 house, $500,000 house, list it.
00:46:48.000The government says we can't let them drop the prices.
00:46:52.000So black BlackRock comes in and says, We'll buy it at $500, and the money came from the Federal Reserve printed out of thin air.
00:46:58.000And then that millennial has that money, and then they translate it into some other you know market, and that's how they prop up the housing market and prevent the global crisis, which is what some people think is happening right now, actually.
00:47:09.000Well, I mean, presumably, like if a Democrat won in 28, you would just get Canada situation because like Canada's like five, six years older than us on average, they have a very old population, so they're kind of ahead of us in the death curve.
00:47:20.000Well, that's why they're importing the rest of the world.
00:47:21.000So I mean, like if a Democrat were to win in 28, that changes the calculus, they'll just flood the country with migrants again, and that'll keep the housing market afloat.
00:47:28.000But yeah, Vance wins, I mean, that could totally happen.
00:47:31.000It won't keep the housing market afloat because Honduran farmers can't afford $500,000 houses.
00:47:38.000So that's why printing fake money, you'll see massive inflation.
00:47:42.000You'll see really weird things happening.
00:47:44.000I gotta tell you, haven't you guys noticed how weird everything is already with people who shouldn't be making lots of money, making lots of money, lots of gambling.
00:47:58.000How is that that how is it that there are people who have such disposable income at a time?
00:48:01.000Like half the country has zero, has almost no money, and it's like I can't buy eggs, and the other half is like, let's go burn money at a casino.
00:48:08.000Do you think there's a generational sort of dynamic there?
00:48:10.000It's like boom the stereotype, which you know might be somewhat justified of boomers gambling away, spending away their you know, children's grandchildren's inheritance.
00:48:24.000I uh I haven't been to Vegas, I haven't been to many casinos, and but I did go to the one in uh Charleston, you know, you've got the uh Charles Town Charles Town, Charlestown, yes.
00:48:39.000So I went to the one in Charlestown, and uh, yeah, it was entirely maybe it was just because of the part of the country that it's in, but everyone was like 60, 70.
00:48:58.000Yeah, and the interesting thing is uh poker's really interesting because there's uh there's a term in poker called old man coffee, and it's just like an old guy who just sits there and never plays a hand, and then when he finally does, you know he's got aces.
00:49:10.000But there's a reason for this, and it's because and this is kind of sad.
00:49:14.000The reason why in these poker rooms, there's really old people who just sit there and never play a hand until only when they get the best one, which is fairly rare.
00:49:24.000And so these are old people who maybe they're widowers or widows, and it's rare that you see older ladies in the poker room, But they just want to hang out.
00:49:31.000They want to be around people and they want to talk and people are talking.
00:49:35.000And uh they're gambling social security checks.
00:50:05.000So only when they have the best possible hand, and then everyone kind of feels bad when the old man like sits down, loses everything right away and goes, Well, I guess that's it for this week.
00:50:41.000Like, all right, so you could have sneeze in the third quarter and this hits guys, just trust me.
00:50:45.000I actually have a friend who's a millionaire from playing on one of those big sites, but he sits in front of spreadsheets for like 12 hours a day.
00:50:57.000So that so the basic idea is uh I'm gonna butcher this, but I don't know too much about it.
00:51:01.000But if sports betting website A has like a uh uh the odds are you know, plus one or it's like minus 100 plus 100 or whatever, and then the other site, it's slightly inverted.
00:51:13.000If the numbers are right between two different sites, you are guaranteed to win.
00:51:19.000So if you if you're like if I put a dollar here and a dollar here, and my my input is two dollars, but based on the odds, I'll win either three dollars or two dollars, I can't lose.
00:51:30.000And then if yeah, so so people sit in front of sports betting websites and waiting to find these, and then they make bets.
00:51:37.000And the thing is, these are different companies, so they don't know what you're doing on other websites and what your what your bets are, yeah.
00:51:45.000It's like totally ruining sports though, because it's like all the athletes know, like they all know, they're all like winking at each other and everything.
00:51:51.000I mean, you can see some compliments, I won't say the specific players, but you can see compilations of players that like definitely knew they needed to like score in additional basket, and they would just put up a shot at the end of the game for no reason because they didn't just happen.
00:52:02.000Like some some college guys were betting on themselves.
00:52:04.000Uh it was it was an M there was two NBA players that got like like busted by the feds, I think, over like it was a big deal.
00:52:09.000Um it seems like such a dumb thing to do.
00:52:12.000Like, how do you not know you're gonna get caught doing?
00:52:14.000I know, yeah, and they make it so obvious.
00:52:16.000It's like they're up by 30 at the end of the game and he just throws like a half court shot.
00:52:21.000So and it's and it's also like ruining the viewership experience because they're throwing numbers every it's like I'm doing calculus when I'm trying to just watch like bowling.
00:52:27.000Hey, you're glued to your phone when you should be watching.
00:52:29.000I say that as a non-sports fan, but yeah, I could I could see that.
00:52:32.000Maybe we need uh some kind of authoritarian fascistic regime to come in and tell everyone to stop gambling.
00:52:38.000I'm joking by the way, but like I'm thinking about these casinos where people with excess cash have nothing to do with it, so they just sit there going like at the slot machine.
00:52:48.000Yeah, it's bleak when you watch other people play slots like by themselves.
00:52:51.000Like poker, yeah, you you know, you could you could have a good time playing poker.
00:52:56.000Yeah, and it's like a do it's a dopamine thing too, because a lot of this stuff's digital, so it's kind of like being glued to your iPhone, but instead you're just like losing money and touching.
00:53:11.000And um when you, you know, so I I'm I'm uh I'm a big poker player, not gonna pretend to be super good or anything, especially because I'm doing this poker game coming up, and I'm just gonna pretend like I'm really bad because I don't want to get embarrassed.
00:53:25.000But the videos that go viral in poker are when someone should win but loses.
00:53:31.000And I'm and I was sitting there watching, like every video you see, it's like some guys are really good hand, the other guys have bad hand, and then they both are like, I'm all in, and they shove their money in, and then at the very last card, the river, the guy with the crappy hand turns around and wins, and everyone's screaming and cheering, and I'm like, I hate that.
00:53:47.000Yeah, you know, when you when when you get in and you're behind, you're just hoping the miracle happens and dumb luck saves you, but it's like you're in trouble.
00:53:56.000But people love watching the the the rarities occur.
00:53:59.000And I think the reason they like slot machines, they don't make money doing it.
00:54:03.000It's because they're they they want to see that rare moment to happen.
00:54:06.000There's a guy in in uh in Las Vegas who literally just does that with a line of people that are out the door, uh, and they all come and give him money to gamble, and he just keeps running the slot and with a video on his phone for when the one person makes that content so he can post the content the person in the video.
00:55:08.000And they and what's crazy is you've got gambling influencers now who don't care if they lose gambling because they're gonna get half a million views on the video.
00:55:22.000I that's why I'm like Elon Save Us, because he's building rockets to go to Mars, and it's just like, is that the only thing that's actually being done towards advancement of human civilization?
00:55:32.000It does feel like we're swirling the drain when you go to like any town, and the only businesses that are new are like weed shops and like vape stores and everything.
00:55:39.000It's just like and everything, and there's sports gambling, everyone.
00:55:42.000Sorry, sounds like scrooge, but it's like oh there's an aspect to decline that like you can't really quantify.
00:55:47.000That it's almost like an aesthetic phenomenon.
00:55:49.000You just kind of see it and you're like, it's just doesn't feel good.
00:55:52.000Yeah, there are dollar generals there, bro.
00:56:34.000So they're there are bars with slot machines, and the windows are blacked out because you're not legally allowed to pe like you cannot be slot machines and alcohol can't be visible from the street.
00:56:44.000So all of these there's there's their buildings over here.
00:56:49.000They look like abandoned buildings with no windows, and then you'll just see a door with an open sign, and you're like, there's no name.
00:56:56.000The business has no name, there's no real parking lot, and there'll be like two or three cars, and you'll watch a guy walk up and like press a button, it'll open, it'll go in and you'll be like, what is this?
00:57:04.000You'll go there, it is a dark room with a bar and a wall of slot machines, and old people just tapping away.
00:57:13.000That's there's probably within 10 minutes of here, 10 of them.
00:57:26.000I guess slaying the dragon in World of Warcraft just doesn't have the same dopamine as uh I mean if you're 60, you don't know how to do that.
00:57:34.000That's one of those things where if you showed someone from the 1950s that they would be like, that's the dystopian future.
00:57:38.000Like we're all sitting around like trying to like hypothesise what that would look like.
00:57:42.000It would be that they'd be like, oh yeah, that's it.
00:57:45.000It's the only difference is they're not in like uh they're not in the pod.
00:57:49.000Well, they're not gonna be a good thing.
00:57:52.000It doesn't even seem like it doesn't even seem like a fun form of degeneracy to you.
00:57:56.000It's like you know, you think about people uh, you know, back in the 50s or any time period, just like getting rowdy in a bar or something.
00:58:03.000Like you're with other people, you're having a good time, you're laughing, you're talking, but yeah, just sitting in front of a slot machine and drinking is it's bleak, yeah.
00:58:10.000Imagine, imagine like back in the day, the old degenerate bar where there's like a stripper, some guys in suits, loud music, there's like a jazz band playing while like a woman shaking her ass, and then the dudes are playing high stakes, five-card draw, and then one guy's like, you're cheating, he slams a gun on the table, and everyone's losing their mind.
00:58:26.000Now you walk in and it's just slot machines.
00:58:36.000And you're and it's funny because some of these clubs, it's it'll say like the name of the company, I don't I don't want to call any specific place out, but it'll be like John's, and then it'll say it'll the signal like this, and it'll be like blank club, because you know they slapped a big white piece of plastic over the word gentleman.
00:58:53.000They ain't even going to strip clubs anymore.
00:59:23.000This is the exact same thing, but it's digital.
00:59:27.000So now slot machines are just lottery locations.
00:59:31.000You know, I think part of part of the reason why people don't go to the uh strip clubs anymore, it's probably got something to do with the fact that 75% of America is overweight.
00:59:44.000Well, like what is the I've never been?
01:00:09.000I think most forms of socialization have declined.
01:00:12.000Yeah, they're like younger people are drinking less too.
01:00:14.000And yeah, maybe uh some fragment uh fra faction of them have are you know being a little more traditional, but I think a lot of them are just like sitting at home and just like on the computer.
01:00:24.000I might go to that go if I go to the strip club, I might have to look the stripper in the eye.
01:00:28.000It's uh yeah, I'm a bit of a traditional anxiety kind of guy.
01:00:31.000I go to strip clubs, I drink, I do drugs.
01:00:33.000It's like these are all very old schools.
01:00:36.000I wouldn't advocate for any of that, but that is clearly better than some of like the new forms of degeneracy where you just like I mean if you want to talk about the shooter and like the the you know video games here and stuff, it's like okay, maybe you should be at a strip club, dude.
01:01:59.000I think we are in a totally different world.
01:02:02.000I think, especially with the assassination of Charlie Kirk, this is thing something changed in that moment where these these liberals that are desperately trying to to frame him, basically.
01:02:16.000Like I've had conversations with some people who I would consider to be not psychotic liberals but still liberals, and I have to explain to them Charlie never said black people don't have brain processing power.
01:02:26.000Like I want to think that that there has been a change, that there are going to be fewer and fewer Democrats because of the malicious string streak running.
01:02:38.000I'm saying that we're at the point where they're shooting and killing people, and the economy won't be as big as an issue as the IED that blew up in your marketplace.
01:03:06.000But when we're in the wit uh who who was it who said this when uh was it it might have been Milo, I don't know.
01:03:12.000When you when your nation tolerates assassinations, you're on the verge of collapse or something like something like that, or a nation that toler a nation that can tolerate political assassinations will not stand.
01:04:25.000You could literally come out and be like, no, I agree with him.
01:04:27.000They're like, we don't care what you say.
01:04:28.000We're gonna lie about what you said, and now you're dead.
01:04:31.000Because that's what they're doing to Charlie.
01:04:32.000And so I feel like that there's there's I'll put it like this.
01:04:36.000When Charlie Kirk is the guy who actually says you are not welcome in our movement to white supremacists and racists, and then they come out and say, actually he was exactly what he condemned.
01:04:47.000Okay, if they want to kill you, they'll make up whatever reason they want.
01:04:52.000And what does that mean for an election?
01:04:54.000So I I I think certainly at the pace Trump is already at with 48 uh confirmations.
01:05:01.000His appointees getting confirmed in one swoop, which is crazy.
01:05:06.000I'm like, at this pace, with the terminations, the people losing their jobs, Trump ramming this thing through, announcing the Antifa uh terror stuff.
01:05:15.000I'm like, what, next week we're gonna start getting arrest of Democrats?
01:05:18.000I mean, the pace is absolutely insane.
01:05:21.000I think that the temperature is extremely hot.
01:05:57.000But I have a security team, and the assessment we've made going through what what they're telling me, looking at the current available information is right now, the threat could not be higher.
01:06:09.000The risk of terror and political violence could not be higher.
01:06:22.000These these, you know, public events like that.
01:06:24.000I'm hosting and also being a part of, just don't do it.
01:06:27.000Don't go out, and we've got to have like three people with us when we go out.
01:06:32.000That's from what we are seeing online.
01:06:34.000They're not just saying, we heard in the news this happened, so we're gonna advise this.
01:06:37.000They're saying we've been reading social media, we've been looking at the chats of these groups, we've been uh doing security and intel analyses on antifa and these far left groups, and they're like, yeah, someone's gonna make an attack soon.
01:07:05.000Well, I think we're seeing something play out now that's similar to what happened in kind of the late 60s and the early 70s, where when, you know, liberals got some victories, they got the civil rights act and so forth, but the far left radicals wanted something far more extreme.
01:07:18.000They wanted like a communist revolution.
01:07:20.000And when then when that didn't come, they started to, you know, eventually you got Nixon, they started to get very disheartened and you know, very desperate, basically.
01:07:29.000So, You know, the Weathermen became the weather underground.
01:07:32.000A lot of these groups went underground and they committed, they turned to terrorism.
01:07:35.000And uh, you know, you had thousands of bombings.
01:07:37.000You it was it was insane attacks on cops.
01:08:14.000You have a lot of mentally ill people who have been told that you know anything other than like extreme gay race communism is uh is you know fascism, which is not the case.
01:08:24.000Yep and therefore, like basically they think they're actually living under fascism.
01:08:28.000So what you're gonna have now is less of like mass organized resistance and more kind of lone wolf terrorism, like we saw uh, you know, unfortunately, that claimed Charlie Kirk's life.
01:08:38.000And so I absolutely think unfortunately there's gonna be more stuff like that.
01:08:41.000It's not gonna be the black block in the streets, riots, you know, fighting with Trump supporters, it's gonna be, yeah, like lone wolf, small potentially terror cells taking taking people out.
01:08:50.000I and I think there's the potential for it to escalate, but I I do think right now, based on the current set of factors before us, not counting for variables to that move uh as we move forward in the future, we are looking at a high probability of a right wing authoritarian form of government for the next decade plus.
01:09:08.000Could theoretically theoretically be longer?
01:09:10.000And there's a lot of there's a lot of factors that predict this.
01:09:13.000One, for those that think we're tracking alongside Rome.
01:09:16.000Some people have thought like maybe we're entering the American Empire period where you get an authoritarian state.
01:09:22.000Um, there's a lot of similarities, but I think people cherry pick the Roman Empire and the Roman Republic to determine, you know, it's like a lot of these things happen hundreds of years apart from each other.
01:09:37.000And I'm like, yeah, those two things you're highlighting as things from Rome is Rome and like 100 AD and Rome and 500 is very far apart.
01:09:45.000Um, but I think with the far left attack, with Donald Trump uh, I mean, winning a popular vote, people largely being on his side.
01:09:56.000The messages that I'm seeing from normies based on Charlie Kirk and uh there are there are posts from people who were liberal a year ago that I follow, like people in various industries that I'm a fan of or follow, and and they're like cheering on Charlie Kirk.
01:10:14.000Pro skateboarders who've never uttered a political word posting online videos saying Charlie Kirk was a great man, and I'm like, I did not know that guy was even a Christian.
01:10:24.000Yeah, but this really made them come forward.
01:10:26.000The left is going to feel very, very desperate.
01:10:28.000I think Trump is gonna do a hard crackdown on these NGOs and they will react violently.
01:10:33.000Trump will then respond with security apparatus.
01:11:17.000I don't I just don't know that I don't know that that's that that's what Trump wants to do.
01:11:23.000And I'm not saying that a future president wouldn't or it wouldn't be necessary.
01:11:27.000Um I just don't know if that's not I don't know if Donald Trump's the guy.
01:11:30.000Well, there's massive expansions of DHS and ICE and it all comes down to what you consider right wing authoritarianism.
01:11:36.000I think Trump is definitely, you know, even now more than before Charlie Kirk's murder, like definitely convinced that he needs to do more in terms of law enforcement, going after Antifa, just cracking down in general.
01:11:48.000So for some that that will qualify as authoritarianism.
01:12:29.000That's the worst case scenario for the average person.
01:12:32.000There is going to be concerns and infringement possibility.
01:12:36.000The issue is is the government corrupt or not.
01:12:39.000And the deployment of National Guard and military to stop acts of terror, far left violence or crime, does not mean your rights will be infringed upon as a normal working class person.
01:12:48.000I still think it is particularly worrying if we get to that point.
01:12:52.000And I have said, I think Trump should deploy the National Guard over the crime.
01:12:56.000It is a very scary thing that we're at that point.
01:13:00.000Well, I mean, yeah, the left only has themselves to blame for just permitting this open, I would say oppression of their citizens in the cities.
01:13:07.000I mean, this has been 60 years now of complete inaction on crime.
01:13:11.000So now that a administration has come in and they and the Americans who have been forced out into the suburbs are saying, Hey, it'd be really nice if I could go downtown and have dinner without getting shot at.
01:14:13.000Yeah, it's very similar to what happened in El Salvador.
01:14:15.000I mean, the the steps that Buchele took to restore order um to the streets of uh you know San Salvador and obviously the rest of the country were uh pretty pretty, I don't want to say severe, but yeah, pretty harsh.
01:14:30.000I was there for the first time uh kind of late August, and yeah, people were happy though.
01:14:34.000Not there are some people down there that have concerns about you know, dictator, some Uber drivers saying that, but the average person is like, even if they have concerns, is like it is undeniably better.
01:14:44.000Like you could just couldn't walk down the street before.
01:14:46.000I met a guy in DC who said he was moving back.
01:15:16.000So the these beach properties that were a couple hundred grand in you know, in US, yeah, are skyrocketing in value because it's safe, yeah, and you've got tech industry building up there.
01:15:26.000I mean, Bukele has revolutionized that country.
01:15:34.000And when I was down there, some you mentioned the people moving back, the uh Salvadoran immigrants, apparently there's there's some sort of problems with that where you know they're coming back and they've got a lot of money and they're uh you know, buying up property too, and it's it's uh kind of a chaotic situation, but it's like undeniably better than how it was before.
01:15:50.000So it in an ideal situation, you don't have to adopt those harsh measures to have like a safe, prosperous society.
01:15:59.000But once you get to the point where crime and disorder have have eaten away the social fabric so much, you know, it's really do you do you let your country die and be a hell whore?
01:16:08.000Do you do you do whatever is necessary to get there?
01:16:39.000So I mean, do we want to live that way?
01:16:41.000I I I think there's concerns and challenges in what overreach could look like.
01:16:46.000But if we went half the speed of El Salvador to ensure that we protected rights, yeah, but moved in that direction, it'd be a good thing.
01:16:52.000Yeah, it's just stuff like having the you know proper sentencing, having attorneys and uh pardon me, DAs and judges that are willing to actually ensure that people serve the time that they're due.
01:17:03.000I don't think it would take anything extreme in America.
01:17:06.000There'd be a lot of opposition from the left, of course, but I do think the average American would like it.
01:17:10.000I think I would push back on that because I think that the problem that you're outlining that the that you're you're pointing at the DAs and the judges, that's the biggest problem.
01:17:28.000It's that we have an infestation of leftists in the judicial departments of these of different states and cities and stuff.
01:17:38.000So how do you get people that want to have soft on crime policies that believe in things like crazy bullshit like restorative justice?
01:17:48.000How do you get them out of those positions when a lot of times uh would DAs have to be you know elected, yes.
01:17:56.000But there are foreign uh entities that are dumping tons of money into these DA races, and then you got judges who generally are appointed for life, frequently, not all the time, there's somewhere there there are elections and stuff, but judges that are appointed for life that have these you know soft on crime policies,
01:18:13.000these restorative justice policies where they're just like, well, you know, if you are of a certain persuasion, if you're a if you're not a white person, we're gonna go ahead and allow you to have a a light sentence, a short sentence, let you go ahead and go free on your own recognizance, just prompts you'll come back, or blah, blah, blah, which always ends with terrible results.
01:18:33.000Not every individual, of course, but enough where it's generally it's it's generally, and it's enough where you can say these policies produce more crime and they are a danger to the population.
01:18:45.000And you can see it on the subway in North Carolina, the that poor girl that got stabbed.
01:18:48.000That guy should have been in jail, but they just kept letting him out and letting him out.
01:18:51.000You know, and it turns into dead people.
01:18:53.000Isn't that funny that Democrats are like we need gun control laws?
01:18:56.000And then when they arrest a guy with a legal gun, they say you're free to go.
01:19:00.000Well, I mean, I I was like, there's all these laws, and I'm in total total agreement, like our justice system, the the people carrying out justice, there's soros upon a DAs, et cetera, et cetera.
01:19:10.000But it's like, yeah, when you see that situation in Charlotte with Arena, it's like I mean, no matter what laws you have passed, it's not going to stop that from happening.
01:20:03.000Well, at this point, just after 130 today, officers respond to reports of shots fired in the 400 block of Broadway in Sacramento where the ABC affiliate is located.
01:20:15.000Uh they observed the building had been hit by gunfire, uh, no injuries.
01:20:20.000And at this point, at least this is very preliminary at this point.
01:20:25.000They can't say for sure whether this was targeted or random.
01:20:29.000But given the timing that you just referred to, that's going to be part of the investigation.
01:20:34.000Um as far as any additional resources or agencies not responding at the moment, but if there's changes and changes in that, look to see if if that broadens this investigation, and again, if it would be in any way related uh to Jimmy Kimmel.
01:20:51.000And you could imagine uh the motivations, if it is related to Jimmy Kimmel, it could be directed at ABC for at least suspending the show, or it could be directed at ABC and Kimmel because of what Kimmel said.
01:21:27.000What the timing is is pretty glaring, but when I asked them directly if they thought it was related, they said it's just too early to say anything about that.
01:21:37.000It's gonna be part of their investigation.
01:21:39.000I'm gonna say I do not see a reality where an ABC affiliate, the affiliates were responsible for Kimmel getting pulled off the air, got shot at right after Kimmel got pulled off the air, and they're like, coincidence.
01:21:52.000I mean, it's possible, I guess, but come on.
01:21:55.000What reasonable person is gonna draw that conclusion?
01:22:54.000The there's not really a whole lot of uh reason for a Trump supporter to be like, oh, I'm just gonna randomly shoot at this ABC station, especially when ostensibly the conservatives are you know pressing the advantage.
01:23:07.000You know, conservatives and people, they're they're conservatives and people that would be Trump considered Trump supporters, they're in a position where you can kind of say, look, you know, things are generally we generally have have the the opinion of the American people on our side.
01:23:23.000Trump's up ten points today from from Rasmussen.
01:24:22.000For all we know, it could be uh a jilted lover, you know, and his wife was uh a PA or something, and he's like, You cheated on me, we have no idea.
01:24:29.000But bleeding Kansas, civil strife looks like you turn on the news and you're getting crazy stories like this.
01:24:36.000And so, man, we just had I mean, we just had an assassination, you know what I mean.
01:24:43.000This is this uh again, we don't know what the motive is.
01:24:51.000Sitting with my security team, and they're like going over the intelligence, and they're saying, based on our assessment, here's what we're seeing on social media chatter, here's what the forums are saying, here's what the direct threats we're seeing to you.
01:25:00.000They're like the likelihood of an attack, not just on you, but anywhere is very, very high.
01:25:04.000Then the Kimmel thing happens, and shots fight an ABC affiliate.
01:25:42.000Kid thinks the dad's invincible, so he's gonna shoot him, and he's like, I'm not invincible, and you know, but uh we I my understanding is the bulletproof windows can't roll down in the uh in the armored cyber truck or whatever.
01:26:08.000Um I got to I we we were gonna I I thought like I think when I was there this few years ago, we were gonna drive it around, but we ended up not like, but I we I we went inside it and he showed me around, and it's it's a monster truck.
01:26:17.000He he's out you can find it, you can Google it and like watch the video.
01:26:20.000Yeah, I think I I've seen him driving around in it like for activism or something.
01:26:23.000I didn't know he's like, you know, going to the grocery store and we're gonna go.
01:26:26.000I don't think that he lives in Texas, though, so if there's any place to drive that thing around, no one will bat it about your day, yeah, yeah.
01:27:05.000Yeah, I mean, like I said, it's it's it's this is kind of you know, par for the course nowadays, apparently.
01:27:12.000This is I don't see how things are going to cool off when you've got you know congressional leaders or pe members of Congress on the floor of Congress talking about how the person that was just murders for murdered for sharing their opinions and for for engaging in pol polite political discourse,
01:27:32.000and he was always polite with the people that came up, he was always incredibly friendly, and he would prevent people that were bystanders from heckling people when you've got a member of Congress talking about how racist he was, how horrible of a person he was, this is something that is ubiquitous on the left now.
01:27:49.000I don't see how I mean I would love to see a an off ramp, but I still don't see one.
01:27:54.000We're we're hearing now it may have been celebratory gunfire.
01:28:57.000I'm wondering, I think I think next week Trump might go ham.
01:29:00.000He just needs to reuse some of the old tweets that he has.
01:29:02.000He had some really good applications of this old tweets that you know would probably get him in a lot of trouble now.
01:29:08.000But he knows, he knows, he knows what to do.
01:29:10.000Some people are tweeting that it that it uh it was a leftist, but I don't see any.
01:29:14.000I'm trying to f I'm I I it this was a couple hours ago, the story broke actually, so six thir six forty.
01:29:19.000I'm uh I'm gonna try and see if I can find any more updates on this or if anybody knows.
01:29:24.000Yeah, I mean, I I would like some kind of you know, some more information.
01:29:29.000I I don't imagine that there's someone out there that was actually wearing a uh Biden Harris shirt and I was like, you know, I'm the one that did it.
01:29:36.000But it is a situation where this kind of stuff is going to likely escalate, you know, this is or going to continue.
01:29:46.000Um particularly with the the rhetoric that you're hearing from the left again.
01:29:52.000Like they're the leaders of the Democrat Party pretty ubiquitously had the right initial response, But then the more progressive people within a day or two were pointing out, oh, but he was so terrible and he said all these horrible things,
01:30:08.000and they're repeating lies, or they're repeating um selectively uh you know, selected uh selectively edited videos or you know, stuff out of context and stuff to for no other reason than to say it's actually okay.
01:30:23.000You don't point out, you don't sit there and say, Oh, Charlie Kirk was a bad person and he had all these bad opinions, unless the point of saying that is to say, so it's actually kind of okay that he was murdered.
01:30:36.000Yeah, I mean, I've said it before on the show, is like they set up this Pencer movement a while ago where they're like, it's okay to punch a punch a Nazi or whatever, and everyone's like, okay, yeah, I mean I don't know, maybe.
01:30:45.000And then they're like, Yeah, but you're also a Nazi.
01:30:49.000So they've just they justified political violence a long time ago.
01:30:52.000And then now the tactic has just been advancing the goalpost on what a not or moving the goalpost on what a Nazi is, and then now just being a conservative, a patriot is now beyond the pale for them, and they can justify so even though they're coming out with those lip service where they're giving this condemnation saying there's no place for political violence, they add a bunch of modifiers on there to ensure that they still have they still have a justification in case they do want to go after you.
01:31:15.000They don't like they don't want to concede that line of like, you know, you're still a terrible person and deserve to die.
01:31:19.000I just for whatever reason my PR lady said I have to condemn this.
01:31:23.000And I think the smarter Democrats recognize that, especially when you're not in power, that your own side doing political violence gives the other side a pretext to crack down, which is exactly what's happening.
01:31:34.000And it's why, you know, me and other smart right wingers have for like you know decades been saying that uh right-wing political violence is absolutely not the what the right way forward.
01:31:47.000Newsmax report of a bomb threat at RFK Jr.'s Georgetown home.
01:31:51.000This is uh breaking as of eight o'clock.
01:31:53.000I mean, it's pretty wild because we do pre-production and and these it's it's hard to find all the stories.
01:31:58.000And things start blowing up and you know, shots are fired, and canine units deployed, uh, the home and surrounding areas have been searched and cleared.
01:32:04.000Officials say that as of now, no explosive devices have been found.
01:32:07.000The scene remains active while the investigation continues.
01:32:14.000Um, far be it for me to be like, hey, look, I this proves that I was right, but this is what I was saying civil war in the modern era would look like.
01:32:23.000We are gonna see a bunch of stories like bomb threats, shootings, red alerts, false alarms.
01:32:29.000Uh I would say this is this is definitely like a bleeding Kansas thing.
01:32:32.000I don't I'm not saying we're in civil war, I'm saying this is definitely bleeding Kansas level violence.
01:32:38.000The only thing is, as as uh we had a super chatter make the great point, they didn't have instant data transmission back in uh 1860s.
01:32:47.000So this stuff took months to progress.
01:32:50.000I mean, if you were trying to get a surrender, you wouldn't know until the the postal carrier could deliver the letter and you'd actually get a response.
01:33:33.000Not only not to mention there's the lower tier stuff, all the people getting fired from their jobs for dancing on Charlie's grave, the celebration of the of the of the assassination.
01:33:41.000This has been one insane escalatory week.
01:33:47.000It's uh well, liberals finally became free speech advocates.
01:33:52.000It took it took quite a bit happening to get them to that point.
01:33:54.000But um, you know, when it came to their right to when it came to our right to criticize various policies like Black Lives, Black Lives Matter riots and uh COVID stuff, you know, they they weren't supportive of our free speech then.
01:34:06.000But when it came to people saying that you shouldn't cheer on and encourage more political assassinations of normal law-abiding citizens, then they became free speech, you know, absolutists, so to speak.
01:34:19.000Yeah, I mean, to call to to chime in and say, Oh, you don't like cancel culture now, you're a hypocrite when they were literally canceling people for using the wrong pronouns.
01:35:02.000He said, if we're not careful, all of our conservative and right wing friends are gonna lose their late night shows, their network news anchor positions, professorships and roles as Hollywood actors.
01:35:12.000Their films might not get reviewed by the New York Times peril indeed.
01:36:43.000They engaged in the heated rhetoric, just in fact, they they engade in engaged in far more heated rhetoric than anyone on the right did.
01:36:53.000They the left has moved so far to the left that the right saying the most anodyne and mundane conservative values, they called hate speech.
01:37:02.000So they changed the essentially they changed the rules.
01:37:06.000And then when the conservatives said, Well, we're not gonna change our rules, these these are things that we actually believe in.
01:37:12.000They said, Well, then that justifies us hating you.
01:37:15.000That justifies us ending your careers, that justifies us doing whatever we want to harm your family, that justifies us up to and including murdering you.
01:37:25.000And then they're like, but what about free speech?
01:37:34.000Trump's not legally preventing people from cheering on Charlie Kirk's death.
01:37:38.000Maybe he's got that in in the cards, so uh I'll have to walk this back a bit.
01:37:41.000But yeah, no, it's literally I I do think that the a lot of normal people view like cheering on a gruesome assassination is like a pretty crazy thing.
01:37:52.000Um, and if it were if if like every liberal thought that was okay to do, these people wouldn't be getting canceled for, you know, because for all of the ground that the right has gained in recent years, most institutions are still like, especially like in cities and stuff, are still like pretty left wing.
01:38:07.000Um, but yeah, these people, it really took them cheering on you know the murder of an innocent person in order for them to start suffering social consequences for their views.
01:38:17.000Whereas for, you know, I always think back to the police officer who, you know, the the give send go or the go fund me for Kyle Rittenhouse's legal defense got hacked and all of the names released.
01:38:27.000This guy lost his job for donating like 20 bucks.
01:38:31.000So yeah, the bar is has been extremely low for getting canceled as a conservative.
01:38:36.000And uh now the other side is crying about cancel culture because uh, you know, they're just extreme like pro-assassination freaks at this point.
01:38:44.000Literally, literally it's like that's literally what they're it's happening.
01:39:09.000No, as uh uh we had a guest on the show Monday, Slow Jack, and he was like, Yeah, like celebrating a death at a McDonald's would have gotten you fired from McDonald's.
01:39:18.000Like it's just because this has become a wedge issue that they're calling it cancel culture.
01:39:21.000He's like, that's always been the case.
01:39:22.000You always get fired from your job for like celebrating someone getting shot.
01:39:25.000And more importantly, things like that should happen.
01:39:28.000Cancel culture was always when people were fired for things that were not objectionable.
01:39:32.000They they something they did 10 years ago, something their dad did, or an off-color joke.
01:39:37.000And I think the first instance of this was that woman on the plane when she said something like, Flying to South Africa, I hope I don't get AIDS.
01:39:59.000Yeah, I was gonna say because liberals, I feel bad for Zoomers.
01:40:02.000They don't know what it was like, but back back in like the late 2000s, early 2010s, like every liberal I knew was saying stuff like that.
01:40:08.000It was just like, you know, edgy humor, whatever.
01:40:10.000And she was she tried explaining, she was like, No, I was pointing out that the people who suffer under AIDS are are the black people and the white people are getting special treatment.
01:40:19.000And they were like, the the companies were like, we don't care.
01:40:22.000A hate mob is a hate mob, regardless of ideology, and they've decided to hate you.
01:40:27.000So uh she shouldn't have lost her job over that.
01:41:00.000Well, I think our employees are our customers are a little freaked out by you calling for death, and they don't want to shop here, so we're gonna ask you to leave.
01:41:18.000These people censored the pres they censored the president too as they're crying about like you know, cracking down on free Jimmy Kimmel's free speech, like you censored the president.
01:41:34.000They say, Oh, but that that wasn't like the government doing that.
01:41:36.000And then you find out about maybe not in that specific case, although it probably was.
01:41:40.000I mean, after J6, the the deep state just kind of like took over the the administration.
01:41:45.000But I mean, you know, in the recent years, we've learned the extent to which the government's been involved in censoring the private sector, and you know, it's the idea that it's just like a free these are just free companies doing what they want.
01:41:59.000It's you know, in some cases, yes, but no, the Biden administration and even even before that, you know, the deep state has been using all Mike Benz has done great work on this.
01:42:07.000Just just every aspect of the government they can to crack down on free speech.
01:42:12.000So um yeah, I mean, it's crazy to still see people say, like, well, careful, if you're doing this, the left might do it.
01:42:19.000It's like you should have been saying that to them before because now like it's inverted.
01:42:25.000Like, yeah, now we're not doing what they did, just to be clear, but we are, you know, yeah, you know, cracking down.
01:42:30.000We're we're kind of asserting power, but it's uh far fairer in like more justified way in anything that they did.
01:42:36.000Yeah, like they were like impeaching the president, like trying to throw him in jail, and none of them ever said, What if the right does this to us?
01:42:42.000Yeah, it's like A, they know we won't, like we're like, we know we'll just elect a dead guy.
01:42:46.000But then B, yeah, because they're not stupid.
01:42:48.000They they would never say that because they're trying to win.
01:42:50.000Like that's a that's they're just trying to win.
01:42:51.000They want it more than we do, evidently.
01:42:53.000Well, they had power for so long and they were so arrogant that they thought that they could literally just do anything.
01:42:58.000I always think back to this Matt Iglacius tweet.
01:43:01.000It was, you know, it was like maybe a wee, you know the one I'm talking about.
01:43:04.000It was maybe a week or so after Trump was uh deplatformed.
01:43:17.000Well, flash forward to 2024, and it's like, all right, dude, maybe maybe rethink.
01:43:21.000Well, you know, uh, we were talking about this the other day with Mary, and I was saying she was she she was basically saying, like, we need to go against these people.
01:43:28.000We need to use whatever force we can, like censorship, whatever.
01:43:32.000I don't want to put words in her mouth.
01:43:33.000I'll just say my point was when the right was on the receiving end of all of this, none of it worked.
01:43:39.000Nobody they silenced people, but it didn't stop their mission.
01:43:42.000They they've smeared people, they accused them of missing disinformation.
01:43:46.000They tried to dominate the culture and failed.
01:44:08.000And there, and and you know it's really my favorite one.
01:44:11.000Seeing these liberals post, the difference between Roseanne and Jimmy Kimmel is that Roseanne wasn't fired because the president tried to get her fired.
01:44:19.000Or the the thing about Jimmy Kimmel is that it went against their own business interests because the president pressured them.
01:44:26.000And it's just like these are the lies they're spreading.
01:44:32.000Uh Brendan Carr played a small role with his statement, which was worrisome, but advertisers unrelated to affiliates or the FCC had complained as well.
01:44:41.000And when Jimmy Kimmel was talking with the executives, he said he was going to double down.
01:44:46.000This is an entirely different scenario where with Roseanne, she made a joke.
01:44:54.000And then I believe Roseanne said Obama and Michelle called ABC and lobbied for her dismissal.
01:45:02.000So it's they live in they live in an inverted reality.
01:45:18.000They're saying that the right, they're hypocrites for now being f in favor of getting people fired from their jobs.
01:45:23.000And I'm like, no, no, no, there's a difference.
01:45:25.000There's the eight years of please stop getting people fired from their jobs, and liberals saying no.
01:45:32.000Then finally the right saying, fine, we will stop you taking power and stopping them, versus the hypocrisy of it's a good thing to ban people.
01:45:40.000And then when it happens to them, they say, oh no, our free speech.
01:47:15.000But this is what's funny is that I I pointed out in the video that where I took the test, left and right has nothing to do with this.
01:47:21.000In the modern era, left basically means pro-trans.
01:47:25.000And and and for real, because you can be uh you can be critical of communist economic theory and the left will be like, okay.
01:47:33.000But if you come out and you're like gender ideology is weird, they'll say you're a right wing, you're far right, and they'll kick you out.
01:47:38.000And so uh I took the test and it plotted me on the left libertarian spectrum, which is typically where I fall.
01:47:43.000And uh terrible has a question uh about this.
01:47:45.000He says, Tim, earlier you disagree with the question about needing religion to be moral.
01:47:48.000Wouldn't growing up in a Judaic Christian country shape one's morals, but not religion, not religious be similar as cut flower politics, um, but not religious be similar.
01:48:02.000The question was something like do you need religion to be moral?
01:48:06.000And the answer is you you uh an individual does not.
01:48:10.000Uh I I I forgot how the actual the question was actually framed, and I pointed out that these questions are framed to make you appear leftist.
01:48:16.000So when you take the political compass test, there's a lot of absolutes that you can't answer, and so you must be a leftist.
01:48:23.000So the idea that an individual must be religious to be moral is just not correct because you can have derivative religious foundations, and so the individual themselves doesn't have any religious foundation.
01:48:34.000Bill Maher, for instance, is a largely moral person.
01:48:38.000However, he does not have a an underlying himself religious understanding.
01:48:44.000He probably he's he's he's learned to a certain degree on these things, but he couldn't tell you what a theologian or actually your comment practicing Christian could.
01:48:51.000He doesn't know much about the back background.
01:48:53.000I as I said, I agree with Ben Shapiro that he was born morally on third base, but the individual himself does not practice a religion.
01:49:00.000That that was the point of the question in my view.
01:49:03.000If you do you need, do you need to practice a religion to be moral?
01:49:12.000That's the problem with these questions.
01:49:14.000It asked um it one of the questions was should uh uh should abortion where the life of the mother is not in jeopardy, uh it said abortions where the life of the mother is not in jeopardy should never should should always be illegal.
01:49:30.000And I was like, well, if my option is to be absolute no matter what the circumstance, considering we haven't even assessed the circumstance, I can't say yes to that.
01:49:39.000There are certain circumstances where abortion should be legal when the life of the mother is not in jeopardy.
01:50:27.000I can answer every question, which justifies why I lean left and they'll call me far right.
01:50:32.000Yeah, I mean, you look at someone like uh so I think you brought it up last night, real quick or whatever, or mentioned it.
01:50:37.000Uh, Shuan had put out a new video talking about the the shooting of Charlie Kirk, and she was basically just kind of venting about how appalled she is at the behavior of the left.
01:50:50.000And she has pretty left-leaning economic views, like she believes in the social safety net, she she thinks that Bernie Sanders has economic views that are that are right on point, like she's you know, thinks that billionaires or there's too many billionaires or the billionaires should have pay higher taxes or what have you.
01:51:07.000Um but when you are presented with the modern left, the way that they look at at social questions, and you see that they literally act like they're evil, right?
01:51:24.000A person that has they have no reason to hate this person other than they have a different opinion, right?
01:51:31.000They they look at they believe that you you you can't become a woman if you're a man, and they believe that you shouldn't com you shouldn't have abortions because they believe that's killing a human.
01:51:42.000Like if those things, if you say, well, that makes you an evil person, and then you have to lie about them, you know, it's it's it's shocking to a lot of people, and I think that goes to Tim's point about you know how the people on the right are more in touch with reality than people on the left are.
01:52:01.000Joshua David says, Rest with Jesus, Charlie, be seeing you then, bro.
01:53:45.000Patriot Peladin says the assassination of Charlie, Kimmel's lies and cancellation and now ABC gradually and then all at once.
01:53:52.000Yeah, when I was talking to Eric Prince, I asked him with all the countries that he's been to, with everything his his uh men and partners have seen.
01:54:03.000Is there, you know, is is this happening in the United States?
01:54:06.000And what he said was the one thing that's true in every location is that it happens overnight.
01:54:12.000One day, yes, there's political turmoil, and you go to bed, but when you wake up, the electricity won't turn on and there's no internet.
01:54:20.000And so uh we won't know until it happens.
01:54:24.000And and it there's for obvious reasons the power goes out first, the internet goes out first because you cut communications first thing when it when conflict starts.
01:55:34.000Yeah, and there's going to be a lot of people.
01:55:38.000So if you are a conservative and you are in Phoenix and you are going and you are wearing specifically red, white, and blue, everyone will know where you're going.
01:56:30.000I personally I just think it's the DMT, but I'm not particularly speech.
01:56:33.000Yeah, but there are stories of people who they they put in two different rooms next to each other, give them DMT, and they both go to the same place and learn the same information.
01:56:41.000That's why you know, when Joe Rogan was doing all these shows about DMT, everyone was so interested because they're like, How did two people who did not communicate come back from a trip but have the same information?
01:56:52.000How is that information translated to them?
01:56:56.000And there's still uh there's still theories as to as to how There's um what is this?
01:57:02.000What is that movie with um it's a it's a really awful movie, but it's got Robert De Niro in it, and he's a magician, and the guy's trying to like figure out how he how he how he does it.
01:57:14.000Robert De Niro's a magician, and he claims to have actual psychic powers, and they can't figure out how he does it.
01:57:19.000And he and uh an assistant go into isolated booths, and he's supposed to know psychically what the other guy what number he's chosen.
01:57:29.000And sure enough, when the guy chooses a number, Robert Daniel gets it right every time, and they're like, There's no transmission between them.
01:57:37.000We don't know how they would communicate any information, therefore this is supernatural.
01:57:42.000It turns out they had synchronized watches, and every time Robert Robert De Niro would get a signal to like he would get signaled it was his turn to respond.
01:57:51.000He would look to where the second hand on his watch was, and that was the number to pick.
01:57:55.000So they were still able to able to convey information.
01:58:53.000Gravity Walker says, besides the fee for the H1B, we need to tax salaries paid to foreign workers at 100% or more, offshoring our labor is a killer.
01:59:02.000Indeed, I mean, we're basically just saying no more H1Bs, you know what I mean.
01:59:08.000The Skull Kid says Ilhan Omar literally does this on behalf of Somalia every day.
01:59:13.000I think referring to the campaigning and lobbying on a for a foreign country.
01:59:51.000Islamists, they'd be like, What are you talking about?
01:59:54.000I mean, no, I I imagine they they'd understand it because there's there was a time when you know Italians came in and they were living in little Italy.
02:00:01.000I think they could wrap their head around Italians, but they'd be like, Where's Somalia again?
02:00:05.000Well, the thing is like, you know, whether it be Irish or Italians, they were looked at as others in a way.
02:00:14.000It is true, it is true they were Europeans and stuff, but you know, when they were beating the crap out of each other in the streets, doesn't you know they they didn't feel like they were as close as as we feel like they are.
02:00:25.000And that was Italians and Irish, so now Somali, it's like that's a huge gap.
02:00:56.000Crime happens, and then there's no investment in the area.
02:01:00.000Businesses leave, police don't actually prevent crime, so nobody wants to b have businesses, nobody wants to to put any of their money in there.
02:01:56.000And then he but and he rode away for like five feet and then spun out because his so uh for those not landed it and rode for five feet, and they're saying it doesn't count.
02:02:07.000So for those that are not familiar, El Toro, the bull is a large set of stairs, thought to be close to the limit of human physical capability to jump down.
02:02:18.000And uh back in the day, uh I'll I'll avoid the overt jargon from skateboarding, but it was jumped down and people are like, whoa, that's crazy.
02:02:27.000And then it was spun, meaning someone jumped and rotated.
02:02:31.000And then uh Dave Pajinski kick flipped it, meaning he not only jumped it, but the board flipped under his feet, and a lot of people thought it wasn't possible.
02:02:38.000And then he did, and people's minds were blown.
02:02:40.000Chris Joclin did what's called a 360 flip, where the board spins 360 degrees while flipping one time.
02:02:47.000But when he landed, the impact was so tremendous, the truck of the skateboard broke.
02:02:53.000And so as he rode forward, it lost control and he spun out.
02:02:57.000But he stuck it, land it, rode a little bit.
02:03:00.000And as much as everyone said that counted, everybody in the back of their mind knew it doesn't.
02:03:06.000It's not his fault that the truck broke, but he didn't ride it out.
02:03:10.000And so everyone was like, he did it at a human level, but we want more.
02:03:15.000And so reportedly he did it again, and it would be for those that don't know, one of the greatest feats in the history of skateboarding.
02:03:22.000Uh and so we think that it it it it is uh he did it.
02:03:25.000So anyway, my friend, smash the like button, share the show with everyone you know.
02:03:38.000Patrick, do you want to shine anything out?
